I have one of these and like it.

It's not as fancy as the Baxley, but it works fine.  It does slip around a bit on a slick surface but I put it up against the garage wall or the front part of the truck bed.  And it does require a little bit of a rock back and forth on the bike to get it to disengage.  But I've had it for so long I really don't think about these issues, but they are there.

I think chocks are the way to go.  Especially since it makes checking the oil level a simple glance and see operation.

I've had a Condor chock for 4 years.  Hooks onto the supplied trailer plate for transport to the track. Never ever ever had a problem..... Even when I had to avoid a tire on rt 93 @ 70mph and thought the trailer was going to teeter onto its side.  Pulled over to check my undies and the chock and straps kept the SV upright and solid. 

I also have the HF roll on chock. It sucks. I use it when both bikes are put away for winter.
